    all the same? black pants, solid colored button down shirt and a classic-ish sweater over it

    If you were interviewing at Daniels, The Met, etc... I'd still wear a suit. I'm old school like that.

    Is it worth having your clothes taken in by a tailor? Actually, wait, I think you've lost more than 2 sizes right? If you have then it'll ruin the shape of the clothes if you're taking it in more than 2 sizes. 

  • I'd say black pants and a nice sweater/top could work as well.

    i've lost 4-5ish sizes that i can tell. my current jeans are loose.. and i haven't been to buy new ones.. waiting to hit my first goal weight.. which hopefully will be in the next couple weeks! for now, my clothes are ill fitting.

    except when you procrastinated and didn't do something about it over the weekend and then you have possible plans tonight and your interview is right after work. lol.

  • procrastinating is an issue! if you're still "in between sizes" and you're not ready to commit to buying new clothes, i'd try borrowing or value village.

  • A general rule is always wear something comparable to the job you'll be applying for.

    Way to lose the weight and lose sizes!!!

  • All black, which is kind of a generic outfit I see the servers wearing at most places I frequent. Black trousers, black sweater or button-down. If my button-down black color clashed with the trouser black color, then just a nice button-down shirt in white or pastel.

  • I agree with PP. Black slacks or skirt and button down shirt. Congrats on how many sizes you lost! That's great! And I hate buying clothes during the 'in between' sizes. Always irritates me.

    Could you pick up some slacks and a shirt at Target? It might not last but it could get you through...
